What's in my cup tonight? ☕️

Tonight we are re-watching the final episode of Stranger Things season 4 ready for the final season later this month and what am I pairing it with?
A lovely Moringa latte. I love using it as a gentle nutrient boost rather than a “quick fix”, stirred into a warm latte with plant milk is an easy, cosy way to enjoy it. 🌿

What is Moringa?

Moringa (often called the “miracle tree”) is naturally rich in:

✨️Antioxidants – helping to protect cells from everyday oxidative stress.

✨️Vitamins A, C & E – supporting immune function, skin health and repair.

✨️Minerals like iron, calcium & potassium – useful for energy, bones, and muscle function.

✨️Plant protein & phytonutrients – which help with satiety, blood sugar balance and inflammation.

Does it have caffeine in it?

✨️Moringa leaf powder is naturally caffeine-free. If your latte only uses moringa (plus milk/water), there’s no caffeine.

Does it taste like Matcha?

✨️It can look like matcha, but it doesn’t taste the same.

Moringa: mild, earthy, “spinach-y” green flavour; slightly bitter if strong.

Matcha: grassy with a little sweetness and a distinct umami depth.

If you want a matcha-latte vibe (without caffeine), try your moringa with creamy plant milk, a dash of vanilla, and a touch of maple or cinnamon.

‼️A few notes: quality matters, start small (it has quite an earthy flavour!), and always check with your practitioner or GP if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, on medication, or managing a health condition.

I’m excited to share that I’ve begun the advanced & clinical years of my Nutritional Therapy training 👩‍🎓
This isn’t a restart, it’s a step up. I’m building on my existing qualifications and client work with deeper clinical study so I can support you even more effectively.

Right now I’m deep-diving into the evidence on HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) - its benefits across perimenopause, into post-menopause and beyond (bone, brain, heart, mood, sleep, muscle, urogenital health) and how it can fit within a holistic, naturopathic approach alongside nutrition, movement, sleep and stress support.

My role isn’t to prescribe (that’s your GP/menopause specialist), but to:

✨️translate the research into clear, practical nutrition & lifestyle steps

✨️help you consider where HRT may or may not fit for you

✨️work collaboratively with your medical team when HRT is used

✨️offer non-HRT options for those who can’t or don’t want to take it

Below are examples of how our s*x hormones influence our body and mind so you can see why when they begin to decline, it can affect every part of us.

If you’re curious, tell me what you’d like covered next: brain fog? bone health? weight changes? sleep? Drop your questions below or DM me.

Couple of comments from the second round of my Autumn Reset this week. I love when people step out of their food routine and try something different only to discover they love it 🥰

Strange but true 🙄

Final call for next week, closing tonight.
I have 3 spaces left and won't be running another one until January so if you'd like to go into the upcoming busy season feeling great and in control, let me know.

🍂✨ Look what the Autumn Reset group achieved in just one week! ✨🍂

⚡️ More energy, especially in the mornings & afternoons

🌱 Feeling lighter, less bloated, and better digestion

😴 Improved sleep – falling asleep faster & waking refreshed

🍫 Sugar cravings reduced (and some didn’t miss them at all!)

👩‍👧 Families got involved – even the kids loved the recipes

🥗 Rediscovered how simple, tasty & satisfying healthy food can be

💕 Brighter skin, lighter mood & a real mindset reset

💪 A couple who did the Reset together (early 50s, struggling with menopause symptoms & stubborn midlife weight gain) lost 12 lbs between them! – the first real shift they've seen in a while!

I'm so proud of each member of the group as they hit their own personal goals they set themselves at the beginning of the week, and more.

👉 Just this once, I'm running it again so if you’d like to feel the same, my next Autumn Reset starts 6th October.

Special price: £57 or 2 places for £69 with code 2FOR69.

Message me, comment below, or click the link in my bio to grab your place. Be quick – spaces are limited and doors close on the 30th September! 🍁

Your 70-year-old self is being shaped by what you do today. Every meal you eat, every hour of sleep you get, every step you take (or don’t take) is either building resilience or creating vulnerability in your future body.

In functional medicine, we see this pattern constantly:
- Insulin resistance developing in the 30s sets the stage for diabetes and heart disease later
- Chronic inflammation from poor diet and stress accelerates cognitive decline
- Sedentary lifestyles and muscle loss in midlife predict frailty and falls in our 80s

But it’s never too late to change course.

Whether you’re 25 or 65, your body has an incredible capacity for healing and regeneration when you give it the right tools.

Start with the fundamentals:
✓ Eat real, whole foods that reduce inflammation
✓ Move your body daily - strength training is non-negotiable
✓ Prioritize sleep and stress management
✓ Build meaningful relationships and community
✓ Address root causes, not just symptoms

Your future self is depending on the choices you make today. What will you choose?

If anybody is interested in this, it's a great insight into what we do. I trained and graduated with Emmie Hummingbird Naturopath, we connected when we first met as her story was similar to mine. She was diagnosed with MS at 25 and declined rapidly, losing her ability to walk but after going along the medical route, she decided to take control of her health, recovered and has now been symptom free for over 20 years.
It's not just a fluke!

Emmie Crompton, known as Hummingbird Naturopath, sits down with Valerie Viot, Centre Manager at Together Against Cancer for an inspiring and honest discussio...
